Harris led the receiving corps with 69 offensive snaps but went bizarrely uninvolved until late in the game, earning 5-of-6 targets on the Chargers’ final drive. He picked up 12 yards and a first down on 4th-and-10 from the Broncos’ 34-yard line, before picking up 16 yards on the following play, catching a pass seven yards downfield before churning his legs through contact en route to another first down. A few plays later, Harris ran a fade route from 11 yards out and managed to get his hands on the ball while dragging both feet in the back of the end zone. Unfortunately, he was unable to retain possession as he hit the ground. Harris is a boom-bust FLEX against the Patriots.

Downs has missed two-straight days of practice with the injury, but Steichen said on Sunday that he could return on Tuesday when the Colts have joint practices with the Patriots. This is good news for Downs and his fantasy managers, as the fourth-year receiver is expected to take on an expanded role with Michael Pittman now on the Steelers and the Colts experimenting with him more on the outside.

This comes a day after Watson spent a second consecutive day with the first-team offense after previously rotating days with Shedeur Sanders. Watson, 30, has reportedly strung together a solid few days after getting off to a slow start and could finally be separating himself from Sanders in camp. Both quarterbacks are expected to get at least one start in the preseason after it was reported last week that the team planned on alternating starters in the preseason, but it sounds like the Browns are trending toward naming Watson as their starter while Sanders would serve as his backup. Regardless of who wins the job to begin the season, we would expect to see both quarterbacks under center at some point as the team looks to evaluate what it has at the position before the 2027 offseason.

The 33-year-old signal-caller was in line to back up Jared Goff, but now he will likely call it quits. Bridgewater threw for 62 yards last season while serving as Baker Mayfield’s backup. The former No. 32 overall pick has thrown for over 15,000 yards in his career while tossing 75 touchdowns to 47 interceptions. The Lions are expected to take a look at several QBs to find a replacement for Bridgewater in the coming days.

Radunz becomes the second Saints player to suffer a torn ACL in camp, with DT Bryan Bresee being the other. Radunz started in 10 of the 15 games he appeared in last season, playing almost exclusively at left guard. The sixth-year lineman signed a two-year deal with the team this offseason and was expected to serve as a depth piece for the offensive line. He will likely be placed on IR in the coming days and set his sights on returning in 2027.

The Browns have been alternating their QB1 on a daily basis in camp, giving both Watson and Shedeur Sanders a chance to work with the first-team offense during this summer’s camp battle. While Saturday would have been Sanders’ day to work with the ones, Watson instead worked exclusively with the first-team offense for a second straight day. A team spokesperson said after the practice that this decision was based on head coach Todd Monken wanting to see Watson with certain personnel groupings, but The Athletic’s Zac Jackson believes this could be “the first strong sign that Monken views Watson as the clear leader” in the camp battle. Watson has also reportedly strung together three straight solid days of camp after getting off to an underwhelming start. It was reported earlier that the team plans to alternate preseason starters, so we would assume this camp battle has a few weeks left to go before a QB1 is named for Week 1’s game against the Jaguars.

This could change at any moment, but according to Buscaglia, the Bills’ top four receivers are “clearly” DJ Moore, Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Joshua Palmer. Buscaglia notes that Bell’s separation skills and releases from the line of scrimmage have been good, but that the rookie’s “ball skills have held him back” thus far. The Bills used the 125th overall pick in the draft to select Bell in April. Once thought of as a deep sleeper for the 2026 fantasy season, it sounds like he has some work to do before he can get on the field and make an impact on Sundays.

Legette suffered a reported “stinger” on Tuesday and hadn’t been heard from since. On Sunday, the third-year receiver made his return to the field as he looks to continue competing for targets in a receiver room that’s headlined by Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker

This is the second-straight missed practice for Downs, who is managing a groin injury. The team has not provided any additional updates on Downs’ status or how long they expect him to be sidelined, so this will be something we continue to monitor until we get more information on how long he could be out. Downs is one of two starting receivers currently sidelined for the Colts, as Alec Pierce (ankle) continues to recover from offseason surgery.

Tunsil suffered a torn triceps in Saturday’s practice and is expected to miss most or all of the regular season. Coleman, who has started 14 games at left tackle in his career, is currently competing for the starting job at left guard, but could slide over to tackle with Tunsil now sidelined. Per PFF, Coleman allowed nine sacks and 30 QB pressures during the 2024 season while earning a 65.3 pass-blocking grade. Other internal options included veteran tackle Andrew Wylie and 2025 first-rounder Josh Conerly Jr., who currently occupies the starting right tackle slot. It wouldn’t be surprising if we saw multiple players get a shot at filling the massive void left by Tunsil in the coming days/weeks.

Nabers’ participation in training camp has steadily increased over the last two weeks, and the star receiver has reportedly looked good on his surgically repaired knee. According to Raanan, Nabers has “looked better as the summer progressed” and was able to cut and jump without any trouble. While he has yet to participate in seven-on-seven or 11-on-11 drills, the belief is that Nabers will begin participating in live drills in the coming weeks. The uncertainty surrounding Nabers’ injury has created a nice buying opportunity for fantasy managers who were willing to take a shot on him earlier this offseason at his suppressed ADP. While his price is likely to go up for the remainder of summer, if Nabers is good to go for Week 1, he will be well worth the cost as he projects as a high-end WR1 when healthy.
